Roycroft Arts and Crafts hammered copper buttress vase designed by Karl Kipp (1881-1954) comprising a cylindrical body encased with four angular handles or buttresses and four squares to rim. Marked with orb-and-cross makers mark to underside. 8" H x 4 1/4" dia. Circa 1910. Note: Karl Kipp designed this vase at Roycroft, an Arts and Crafts community in East Aurora, New York. Roycroft's founder, Elbert Hubbard, marketed a variety of books, furniture, leather goods, and metalwork inspired by the British Arts and Crafts Movement. The Austrian designer and former banker Karl Kipp joined the Roycrofters in 1908, initially in the bindery, and established the Copper Shop in 1909, leaving in 1911 to form his own company in East Aurora, which he called the Tookay Shop after his own initials (two Ks). Kipp rejoined the Roycrofters in 1915. (Source: Adapted from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and British Museum.)
CONDITION: One buttress and one square to rim slightly loose. Minute area of surface wear to lower body measuring 1/8" dia.
